Chapter 27

(Escape from planet Frieza)

 

 

(Scene opens at 3 PM standard time on a light transport ship not far from planet Frieza, with Frieza, Zarbon, and Goku (whose hair was recently dyed pink) on board, as well as a pilot. The transport consists of one room (the cockpit) with two small benches and Frieza's broken time compression machine. Everyone stands impatiently waiting for the pilot's next word)

 

Pilot: The battle's not going well. Our forces are being wiped out.

 

Frieza: Well we can't just sit around here and hope for an opening!

 

Zarbon: Master Frieza, you have to stay calm! We don't want them sensing your power!

 

Frieza: I despise this. We're hiding like cowards from a TWELVE YEAR OLD!!!

 

Goku: You know, if you and I teamed up, we could probably-

 

Frieza: Shut your banana hole you stupid monkey! It'll be a cold day when I fight along side you. And keep your power level down! They'll kill you too if they find us.

 

Zarbon: Everybody calm down. We have to get away without anyone noticing so we can come back and fight another day.

 

Frieza: Yes. That boy will pay dearly...

 

Pilot: We need a plan guys. What're your orders?

 

Zarbon: Well, the planet's surrounded by Ash's forces, and we're stuck in the middle. Our army can't hold them much longer, let alone make us an opening to escape.

 

Frieza: Thank you, Zarbon, for restating the obvious. NOW GIVE ME A PLAN!!!

 

Zarbon: Well, we could tell all our ships to withdraw and assemble at a single point to make a hole in their force.

 

Frieza: Excellent. Let's go!

 

Goku: No, wait! That won't work! If they withdraw, the enemies will probably follow them and lead them straight to us!

 

Frieza: Quiet monkey!

 

Pilot: No, he's right. And even if we get out, someone is bound to notice us.

 

Frieza: Silence! Grrr...(to Goku) well I don't suppose you have any bright ideas?

 

Goku: Well, we could just blast our way through.

 

Frieza: Well, yes, but that would defeat the purpose of an undetected escape!

 

Goku: (keenly) But how can they detect us if they're all dead?

 

Frieza: An explosion of that size could be detected from halfway across the galaxy! And from that, they can get a lock on our ship and see where we're going!

 

Goku: Really? Oh, sorry. I've been cleaning toilets so long that I have no idea what's going on.

 

Frieza: It's apparent.

 

Pilot: Oh no! They've breached our lines! The enemy is closing in on the planet! It's only a matter of time before they find us now!

 

(Frieza examines the scanner)

 

Frieza: Wait a minute...the planet's only surrounded two dimensionally!

 

(Sure enough, the scanner reveals that the planet's poles are not being blocked)

 

Pilot: This scanner is 3 dimensional? Cool!!!

 

Frieza: ...who hired you?

 

Pilot: Nobody really. I just kind of wandered into your palace and they thought I was a pilot.

 

Frieza: ...I’ll have to remember to review our security crew when I get back into power. But for now I’m just thankful that Ash's army is as stupid as he is. Let's get out of here!

 

Pilot: Warp factor 9, captain.

 

Frieza: What?

 

Pilot: Uh, nothing. I just always wanted to say that.

 

(Transporter flies into deep space)

 

Frieza: I will return...
